The lightweight division has entered a new era. Johnny Faraće breaks down every champion, the top contenders, his official rankings and the biggest fights boxing needs to make.

William Zepeda vs Lamont Roach results

The Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act could bring structure, competition, safety and opportunity to boxing—without sacrificing the fighter protections the sport still needs.

Now the sport is moving in the opposite direction—and we had better pay attention. This week, Shakur Stevenson signed with Zuffa Boxing, Premier Boxing Champions entered a major distribution partnership with DAZN, and former heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jr. joined Matchroom Boxing. Meanwhile, insid
